I am excited to pledge an additional donation to Chicago Market for our upcoming campaigns. 

Bridget Williams, of Bridget's Northwoods Bakery, joined us this week for an online workshop all about decorating holiday cookies. We started with learning how to achieve perfect consistency with our icing, then moved on to flooding techniques and several other tips and tricks to decorate with confidence!

It’s Small Business Saturday! Supporting small, local business is part of Chicago Market’s DNA. We’re passionate about supporting local farmers and producers, who in turn support our local economies even further.

Tomorrow's Thanksgiving Day, and I'm thankful for my Co-op. Our Co-op.

I'm thankful for the local farmers and producers who participated in our Thanksgiving Pop-Up Market. Normally these events are big festive affairs, but we had to do things a little differently this time around. So we worked with our vendors to promote online sales during November, and this past Sunday opened our doors at Chicago Market for a safe, socially-distanced pick up event.

And just like that, the holidays are upon us. For December, our partners have pulled out all the stops and put together some amazing offerings.

Charles Dabah, owner of The Levantine Kitchen and a personal chef and caterer, joined us last week for an online cooking class featuring fabulous fall recipes! Charles demonstrated spicy white bean stew and butternut squash fries with pomegranate molasses dipping sauce.

The To Market, To Market team, in conjunction with our Thanksgiving Pop-Up Market, is thrilled to bring you the latest curated offering from Hazzard Free Farm, Pecatonica River Honey, Wind Ridge Herb Farm and Gretta’s Goats.

Thinking about Thanksgiving? Think Chicago Market! Head on over to our Thanksgiving Pop-Up Market page to place your orders with the vendors. Then join us for a "pop-up, pick-up" event on Sunday, Nov. 22 from 1:00pm-3:00pm!

Each of the farmers and producers participating in our Thanksgiving Market has a unique story that ties into our values of local, sustainable, and yours. Let's learn a little more about them!

Our To Market, To Market volunteer team is excited to continue to bring you opportunities to buy amazing products from local farmers. While, in the past, we may have been able to host big pop-up events and ask you to come mingle in the space, during these times we are finding new ways to introduce farmers to you. We’re happy to introduce you to Peter Klein from Seedling Fruit.

Andy Hazzard of Hazzard Free Farm joined us and our community for an online workshop last week demonstrating recipes from the Hazzard Free Grain Sampler Box recently sold in partnership with Chicago Market!
